The Toronto Silent Film Festival has once again turned to Instagram to promote its 2015 Festival. This is the third year using the social platform as an awareness tool for the festival. And in keeping with its innovative approach, TSFF has created a way in which people can experience all the films being shown at this year’​s festival in a truly personal way — allowing the user to create their own film.
Utilizing the 15 second video feature on Instagram, Toronto creative agency Red Lion created a “choose your own adventure” on the festival’s instagram account. Using only scenes from the films being featured in the festival, each scene ends with a choice for the user. Based on the hashtag they choose, the platform loads the corresponding scene, each scene has two possible choices.
